    About Tax Treaties...I have been fighting CRA for 3 years now about the treaty they have with South Korea. I have lived and worked in South Korea for 13 years. CRA are refusing to honor the treaty between Canada/South Korea enacted in 1977 and still in effect. They also dock my OAS, again refusing to honor the 1977 treaty. And they refuse to ajust my CPP, again ignoring the 1977 treaty. So...In my opinion treaty or no treaty...If the CRA refuses to honor them; what are there use? In more blunt terms...this government does what ever the hell it wants.

    There is no winning against them. If you don't report it they will eventually find out and of course double what you owe in fines. Not a big deal if you're never coming back and the country you go to doesn't have a tax treaty with Canada. If they do, I'm pretty sure the new country will just collect it for them. It's not a question of if it's worth staying, it's where can you get citizenship? You'll need a passport at some point and I don't expect it's going to be easy in the near future to renew a Canadian one if you become a non-resident. You can get amazing medical coverage in the US for less than $500/month and immediate service. If you live where there is no State income taxes you only pay 13% Federal tax and 7-8% sales tax. I was only on disability for 18 months waiting for hernia surgery, our healthcare can't be beat. It was pretty damn nice to have 2 summers of fishing whenever I wanted, though.

    Hi Adam: Thanks for the detailed videos on this subject, really enjoyed it. One thing I might add is that even though you are subject to a withholding tax, 15% to 25% depending on the tax treaties, you can still file a tax return and claim you basic personal amount ($ 14,398) + age amount ( $ 7,898) + the pension income amount ($2,000) ( all amounts are based on 2022 numbers, and are non-refundable tax credit) Also, you can elect to file under section 217 to reduce the withholding tax. Hope this helps. Cheers! JPY

They will charge capital gains on secondary + properties that have gone up in value. It’s almost the exact same thing as dying. They want the same cap gains as they would get it divested. If people don’t divest and just take off, that’s when people get upset from getting into trouble because they should have filled out the form and obeyed the rules BEFORE they left. They will then get charged much higher taxes and it can be extracted from their new domicile country’s tax bill and the persons bank. People don’t realize the US runs almost the whole world banking system now, so finances are accounted for if people go to almost any allied nation. .US wants Canada to collect lots of tax so they can pay more into nato.

    Hi Adam, wondering if you could model a RRIF Or RRSP meltdown with and without early CPP/OAS. Registered funds would go into Canadian dividend paying stocks to take advantage of the Canadian dividend tax credit. Potentially wiping away a major part of taxes owed.

    Dividend tax credit would only help if you didn't need the income and maxed out TFSA. So doubtful for most. The small credit would never wipe out the tax savings. We have done many plans like this for clients, and typically larger non - reg accounts where there is even further drawdown planning.

    So you don’t need to do taxes in Canada if you are a non resident, as the CRA will already have their 15%, but we don’t pay 15% now in retirement with pension sharing. Are you saying that the 15% held is the minimum and if we do Canadian taxes as a non resident we cannot get a refund?

  • @peterk5981
    @peterk5981Ай бұрын

    The example with Mexico at approximately 8th minute of your video is misleading. 15% in Canada witholding tax cannot be partially recovered even if Mexico taxation is 10% so it is true that Canadian pensioner will loose 5%. However, you did not mention, that if same person decides not to retire to Mexico, she or he will likely going to be taxed at much higher level than 15% witholding tax, so for instance, if all accumutated pensions and OAS will be in the neighbourhood of 60 thousand a year, this amount will be tax much higher than 15% - therefore moving to Mexico allows to save money, not loose money.

The bast way to think about severing from ur country of citizenship and departure to have residency somewhere else, is that the govt looks at it exactly like death. All the affairs have to be squared away and paid in full for taxation before leaving or if they catch on later it will be worse.

    If u were a Canadian citizen when u left, then u were supposed to be completing a tax return every year while u were gone and paying tax on all income including international income. If u are now not living in a tax treaty country with Canada, then it probably won’t be a problem unless u ever want to come back. At that point, you’d be ineligible for social services or free healthcare for it might be a year, and you’d have to do all all all of your back taxes. If you’ve been making good money while away, than you’d need to hire a tax accountant that specializes in Canadian international tax and hire an immigration lawyer that maybe your accountant suggests so they can work together to help u fix it. In Canada there is not tax debtors prison, unless they can prove u we’re doing the taxes and purposely submitting false info to dupe them. Leaving at 20 and not knowing about these tax rules would probably never be in that category. lol. If you are currently living in a tax treaty country with Canada, then technically they can empty your bank account in the foreign country. Not likely tho since u’ve been gone so long. The only other time u could have a problem is if you do not have any other citizenship in another country and if Canada ever does a war draft/conscription, which they probably never will 💁‍♂ If your only citizenship was Canadian, it would be illegal (jail time) if u didn’t come straight back to Canada and enrol. Again, not likely!! 🧐

    @@__s_k__ They said if the new country recognizes the RRSP like the US does, you can keep it going tax free until you withdraw. I would guess that even if they only withheld 25% you would still have a huge tax bill in Canada. Normally when you withdraw, the holding tax is a base amount and when you file your income tax you would have to pay more if your tax rate for the year is higher or get a rebate if your tax rate is lower. I don't see them letting you get away without paying a tax rate for making $500k/year if you closed your account. Definitely a conversation to have with a tax expert, though.

    I don't get it. If I own shares in say, Amazon, Google...why would I be assumed to have sold and then reacquired them? If you have valuable stocks like that, you're going to keep ahold of them, no matter where you move to. So basically, the Canadian government is just taxing everything I own? "You're leaving Canada, so we're going to get money out of you." It's like making me pay to leave the country.

    It's the same with real estate. If you sell your principal residence and make your camp/rental your new residence you are considered to have sold the camp/rental and owe tax on the capital gains. If you're not going to stay and pay for all the waste, they have to get everything they can before you go.

    Severing from the country of your citizenship is considered exactly the same as the person dying (almost). All accounts have to be shored up and capital gains calculated at the point of severance and paid. Most countries do it. The idea is that the country give u healthcare your whole life, roads, libraries, hospitals, schools (educated you), military protection, emergency service, etc. that’s what tax is used for. For housing tho They don’t charge capital gains tax on selling of primary residence. Only rich people will have a real bill when they leave. Then, after leaving, if the country u go to is a tax treat nation with Canada, together they almost always will not charge. More tax from u on those earnings going forward than one of the countries would charge independently. So taxes stay about the same or less. The only risk is if people try to skirt the system b/c the US has control over whole financial system almost every country, so Canada can empty the foreign bank account. US gets a cut of Canada’s GSP for nato fees, etc. side note, everyone running around complaining about Canada and Trudeau don’t realize Canada is just a client state of US. They do what they’re told.

    If u leave without filling out the form and informing them of severance from Canada and new residency somewhere else, then yes, if it’s a treaty nation they’ll go after the person to get the money, it’s tax evasion. If the person fills out the form properly and informs CRA of new residency and severance, then the two tax treaty nations will coordinate when necessary to make sure you usually never pay more tax combined than u would in the new country independently. I hope I make sense 😂 So it’s always better to follow all the rules and do things properly because we live in a global planet where the US regulates almost all the country’s banks and financial systems. Unless u more to Russia or China they can see everything almost! 🧐

    You should give a deep dive into what communism actually is (pure communism) and then go study the distinct differences between communism, socialism, dictatorships, oligarchies, and authoritarian regimes. Make sure the info’s from empirical sources. Then you’ll know Canada would never ever become communist because that would be too good for the people. The govt’s are not the ones in charge my man, the corporations are; the American corporations are in charge across the globe. Govt answers to corporations only. Communism would be a dream. The closest thing Canada has to even mild socialism (aka minimum of what’s good for the people) is the NDP, and they have never ever won a federal election in the whole history of Canada, so communism is a pipe dream my friend. The citizens are too undereducated and hoodwinked by there corps and the cons to ever see the light. You can sleep soundly now. But if u take any knowledge from this message, thank me later and pass it on. Not that it will help. AI is coming to do the corporations’ bidding now.
